S84.801Injury of other nerves at lower leg level, right leg

S84.801 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for injury of other nerves at lower leg level, right leg. It belongs to category S84 (injury of nerves at lower leg level), block S80-S89 (injuries to the knee and lower leg) and chapter 19 (injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 3 subcodes must be used instead.

Within S84.80 (injury of other nerves at lower leg level), S84.801 is specifically for injury of other nerves at lower leg level, right leg. Related codes cover left leg (S84.802) and unspecified leg (S84.809).

Codes in this range require a 7th character: A for initial encounter, D for subsequent encounter and S for sequela. Use placeholder "X" characters to fill any empty positions before the 7th character.

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
